Has HIP HOP lost it's way? Has HIP HOP strayed hopelessly from the activism on which it was founded? Is HIP HOP dead? Is HIP HOP responsible for the disconnect between today's youth and the Civil Rights generation? Can HIP HOP's influence be leveraged to promote positive social change?

The Hereafter is a series of Hip Hop meets Spoken Word concerts that explore these and other questions. The Hereafter focuses on what rapper / activist Wise Intelligent has referred to as " the most essential element of Hip Hop Culture" ACTIVISM!

The mission of The Hereafter is to support an ongoing, living, democratic culture the compels Hip Hop adherents to become active participants in shaping, not only their futures, but the future of their communities, nation and world.

I AM SEAN BELL
black boys speak

A Short Form Documentary from Wildseed Films
Directed by Stacey Muhammad

Running Time 10:30

On November 25, 2006, undercover NYPD officers fired at least 50 rounds of bullets into a car carrying three UNARMED men of African American and Latino decent; killing one, SEAN BELL and seriously wounding two others. Bell age 23 was scheduled to be married on that fateful day.

Three of the five detectives involved in the shooting went to trial on charges ranging from manslaughter to reckless endangerment. All were found not guilty.

The incident has sparked fierce criticism of the NYPD as the city faces yet another murder of an unarmed African American man at the hands of those expected to protect and serve.

“I AM SEAN BELL, black boys speak” is a short form documentary from Wildseed Films that highlights the voices of young black boys between the ages of 11 and 13 years old growing up in New York City.

They speak openly and honestly about their reaction to the Sean Bell tragedy as well as their fears and hopes as they approach manhood in a city where the lives of young black men are often cut short, too often, and too soon.
